WE MADE IT TO IOWA TO WATCH OUR BUDDY, AUGIE RACE IN HIS FIRST NASCAR TRUCK RACE! HE DID GREAT! HE WAS JUST A RACING WHEN ONE OF THE TRUCKS CAME DOWN ON HIM AND THEN THE SAME GUY DID IT AGAIN! I GUESS THAT IS RACING, BUT WE WERE SO PROUD AND SO HAPPY TO BE THERE FOR HIM! THE BOYS HAD A BLAST AND AUSTIN HAS ALL HIS RACING LIST PLANNED OUT FOR SANTA:)!

THIS WAS AWESOME!! WE TOOK A ROAD TRIP TO IOWA TO WATCH A FRIEND RACE IN HIS FIRST NASCAR RACE AND WE WERE TRYING TO THINK OF SOMETHING WE COULD SEE WHILE OUT THAT WAY WHEN RJ REMEMBERED THE SAYING, "IS THIS HEAVEN, NO THIS IS IOWA." FROM THE FIELD OF DREAMS MOVIE. SO HE HAD ME GOOGLE WHERE IT WAS AND IT WAS ACTUALLY ONLY ABOUT 2.5 HOURS OUT OF OUR WAY SO WE DID IT! I AM SO GLAD WE DID AND I KNOW THE BOYS WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER IT AND REALLY APPRECIATE EVEN MORE WHEN THEY ARE OLDER!!!

THIS IS THE DAY I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO FOR FIVE YEARS NOW!!! WE HAVE BROKEN GROUND AND ARE IN THE BEGINNING STAGES OF BUILDING OUR HOME!! I AM SO EXCITED AND SO BLESSED THAT I REALLY DON'T HAVE THE WORDS TO DESCRIBE JUST HOW BLESSED I FEEL!

AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE TOP PICTURE RJ WENT ALL OUT AND BOUGHT AND PAINTED SOME SHOVEL'S SILVER, GOT US SOME WORKING HATS, AND HAD AUSTIN COME OUT AND PHOTOGRAPH BEFORE THEY STARTED DIGGING THE BASEMENT! IT WAS FUNNY, BUT I KNOW I WILL LOOK BACK AND BE HAPPY I HAVE IT:)!

MR. TOMMY CAME OUT TO SHOOT GUNS WITH DADDY AND PAW PAW AND HE GAVE THE BOYS THEIR VERY OWN SHOT GUNS! THEY WERE SO EXCITED AND CAN'T WAIT TO SHOOT THEM! JAX WAS JUST HAPPY TO BE ONE THE FOUR WHEELER! THE BOY LOVES IT! OF COURSE, THEY MADE ME SHOOT THE GUNS TOO BECAUSE I HATE THEM! I HAVE TO SAY IT WAS PRETTY FUN BUT I AM HORRIBLE! I NEED LOTS OF PRACTICE BEFORE I GO HUNTING:)!

JAX WAS EXCITED TO BE BACK AT HIS SCHOOL! HE LOVES SCHOOL, WELL EXCEPT FOR THE GETTING UP EARLY PART, BUT ONCE HE IS UP HE LOVES TO GO! HE GOT TO MEET HIS NEW TEACHER'S AND SEE HIS NEW CLASSROOM. HE SAYS, HE IS NOT A BABY ANYMORE AND IN THE BIG BOY CLASS! LOVE THAT BOY SO MUCH AND HE KEEPS ME LAUGHING AT ALL HIS STORIES HE COMES UP WITH!

SO I WAS WORRIED ABOUT THE BOYS BECAUSE RJ AND I CHOSE TO HOLD THEM BACK THIS YEAR, BUT THEY DID GREAT! THEY WERE VERY EXCITED ABOUT BEING THE OLDER ONES AND BEING IN KINDERGARTEN WITH ALL THEIR BASEBALL BUDDIES! THEY ALSO JUST SWAPPED TEACHERS, SO AIDEN GOT AUSTIN'S OLD TEACHER AND AUSTIN GOT AIDEN'S OLD TEACHER. WHICH IS AWESOME BECAUSE WE ALL LOVE THEM BOTH! I AM SO VERY THANKFUL THIS WORKED OUT AND I KNOW WITHOUT A DOUBT IT WAS THE BEST DECISION FOR OUR BOYS!
